Vintage Shabby Chic

Photo Details

Poster: Maxell

I wasn't going to play-need to clean house for guests-but here I am. Couldn't resist playing in TLC300.

Base card is Bazzill layered with K & CO. dps. Distressed the edges of paper. I have had these little white doilies for awhile-I tea dyed one and after it dried, threaded ribbon though and tied a bow. Used tacky tape and Martha Stewart Garnet glitter at the dp seam line. Added some thread tied buttons.

Challenges:

#300 Combining Challenges
#13 Monochromatic card
#157 Mixing designer papers
#263 Very Vintage
#11 Shabby Chic
#202 Tacky Glitter
